1. A penetrating system, comprising: a penetrating device including a first hollow cylinder having a first end and a second end, the first hollow cylinder including a plurality of pores, a second end of the first hollow cylinder having a connector portion; a second hollow cylinder having a first end and a second end, the second hollow cylinder disposed within the first hollow cylinder and substantially coaxial to the first hollow cylinder; a substantially ring-shaped first end piece having an outer edge and an inner edge, the outer edge of the substantially ring-shaped first end piece secured to the first end of the first hollow cylinder and the inner edge of the substantially ring-shaped first end piece secured to the first end of the second hollow cylinder, wherein the first hollow cylinder, the second hollow cylinder, and the substantially ring-shaped first end piece form a penetrating edge; a substantially ring-shaped second end piece having an outer edge and an inner edge, the outer edge of the substantially ring-shaped second end piece secured to a portion of the first hollow cylinder proximal to the second end of the first hollow cylinder and the inner edge of the substantially ring-shaped second end piece secured to a portion of the second hollow cylinder proximal to the second end of the second hollow cylinder, the substantially ring-shaped second end piece formed from a deformable material; a first fluid reservoir portion for holding a first fluid composition, the first fluid reservoir portion defined by the first hollow cylinder, the second hollow cylinder, the substantially ring-shaped first end piece, and the substantially ring-shaped second end piece, the first fluid reservoir portion in fluid communication with the plurality of pores, wherein deformation of the deformable material of the substantially ring-shaped second end piece induces flow of the first fluid composition from the first fluid reservoir portion out at least one of the plurality of pores; and a lumen defined by the second hollow cylinder, the lumen having a first end and a second end, the first end of the lumen in fluid communication with the penetrating edge; and a second fluid reservoir portion including an initiator, the second fluid reservoir portion attached to the penetrating device through the connector portion of the first hollow cylinder, the second fluid reservoir portion in fluid communication with the second end of the lumen defined by the second hollow cylinder.

2. The system of claim 1 , wherein each of the plurality of pores is substantially perpendicular to a central axis of the first hollow cylinder.

3. The system of claim 1 , wherein the connector portion of the second end of the first hollow cylinder includes a fitting sized for attachment to the second fluid reservoir portion.

4. The system of claim 1 , wherein the second hollow cylinder and the substantially ring-shaped first end piece are substantially non-porous.

5. The system of claim 1 , wherein the deformable material forming the substantially ring-shaped second end piece is deformable in response to pressure.

6. The system of claim 1 , wherein the deformable material forming the substantially ring-shaped second end piece is deformable in response to pressure from the initiator of the second fluid reservoir portion.

7. The system of claim 1 , wherein the deformable material forming the substantially ring-shaped second end piece is deformable in response to applied energy.

8. The system of claim 1 , wherein the first fluid composition of the first fluid reservoir portion includes at least one of an anesthetic, a lubricant, an antimicrobial agent, an analgesic, a treatment agent, a sealant, an anticoagulant, or an antihemorrhagic.

9. The system of claim 1 , wherein the second fluid reservoir portion includes a syringe.

10. The system of claim 1 , wherein the initiator includes a plunger.

11. The system of claim 1 , wherein the initiator includes a pump.

12. The system of claim 1 , wherein the initiator is configured to induce flow into or out of the second fluid reservoir portion through the lumen defined by the second hollow cylinder of the penetrating device.

13. The system of claim 1 , wherein the second fluid reservoir portion is in fluid communication with the lumen defined by the second hollow cylinder of the penetrating device through a flow conduit.

14. The system of claim 1 , wherein the second fluid reservoir portion is configured to hold a second fluid composition.

15. The system of claim 14 , wherein the second fluid composition includes at least one of a vaccine, a therapeutic agent, or a dye.

16. The system of claim 1 , wherein the second fluid reservoir portion is configured to hold a captured sample.

17. The system of claim 1 , further comprising a computing component operably coupled to the initiator, the computing component including a microprocessor and circuitry configured to controllably actuate the initiator.

18. The system of claim 1 , further comprising at least one sensor operably coupled to a computing component, the computing component including circuitry configured to controllably actuate the initiator in response to input from at least one sensor.
